The Letter C

I've been rushing around again...

Last week it was Cheltenham Stitch & Craft show - teaching patchwork knitting for three days

This week it is Cottenham - Textiles in Focus show. I'm going to be staying with Rosie at Cambridge.

I've also been knitting cables - Staghorn from A Fine Fleece.

And the only chocolate in the house is one of these (Rav link) it still needs its ends sewing in... made with two strands of orginal Colinette 4 ply in a muted brown colour....

I've also been spending a lot of time on the Charity Commission site some of my favourite documents are CC3, CC8, C35...

I've also been trying to keep an eye on calories - I really need to loose my extra pounds soon - less than a stone, if only stress and knitting were enough exercise to help :-)

And I've been drinking far too much coffee !!

Sorry there are no pictures, I will really try better next time (I think I've said that before !!)

Tis the season to be cold...

Last Saturday I helped Anne at a craft market in Hereford.

It was cold, I was well wrapped up - two neckwarmers, two pairs of fingerless mittens, and we wont go there with how many other layers I had on...

And yes that is the Clanger hat made by Ruth that I was told never to wear again - I couldn't find another hat...




I managed to finish the set of spirals for a friend just before we got to the restaurant for lunch :-)

And they fitted and she loved them.

Yesterday the leg warmers went to their new owner and she was very impressed and confused that everyone else knew she was getting them !!






And I thought my house was cold - but these are some windows in Hereford - snow inside !!


I'm off to the Isle of Wight tomorrow at some silly hour of the morning for a, hopefully, relaxed holiday...
I hope everyone has a peaceful holiday and that the seasonal fairy brings you lots of yarny goodness
